If those who indulge in frequent drives
IN the public highways for sport or COM
fort would use little more caution when
meeting vehicles. and keep to the right
when they should do so, it would not be
necessary to record so many accidents as
have occurred of late. The following
section, enacted in regard to the matter
by the last legislature, is found on the
statutes:
That whenever any persons, travelling
with any carriages, shall meet on any
turnpike, road or public highway in this
state, the persons so meeting shall sea-
sonablY turn their carriages to the right
of the beaten track, so as to permit each
carriage to pass without interfering or
interrupting, under the penalty of s. for
every neglect or offence, to be recovered
by the party aggrieved,
Few of the accidents which happen on
the road by parties collidiDg in buggies
occur to people while engaged in their
daily svocations 1t is most generally
when they are out for ride and having
nothing to do-not even having to guide
their horse properly. 1t is not always the
reckless driver that suffers the conse-
quences; if it were. the accident would
frequently be a source of rejoicing.
Whenever anyone becomes so reckless
and inattentive to business that he fails
to observe the common laws of the state
in relation to the safety of persons and
property, then he should be prosecuted to
the fullest extect of the law for each Y,o
ittion.

George H Lennox, business agent for
the leading American actress, Miss Marie
Prescott, was caller at the ARGUS office
this morning. This popular actress will
appear at Harper's theatre on the even
ing of August 27-oue week from tom0r-
row evening-opening the theatrical
season of 1sS7-SS Miss Prescott is an
actress of ten years standing, having ap>
peared for that length of time in the
round of plays which have made her so
popular. She supported the great Ital-
ian tragedian, Salvina, during his two
years triumphant tour through this
county, and at the close of his remark
able tour he wrote Miss Prescott a letter
which she still has in her possession. in
which he SAYS: II attribute much of my
success in America to you. OF all the
artistes have met during my travels in
America. consider you the finest. y
This is an endorsement from one of the best
and most reliable sources in the world
Miss Prescott will be well received by the
theatre going people of Rock Island, who
always accord meritorious entertainment,
warm reception.

1t is no longer question of doubt
although the contrary was once believed
that medicines which would produce
violent effects are unsuIted to other than
desperate emergencies. In other words, that
super-potent remedies are calculated to
weaken and injure the system rather than
reform its irregularities. Among medi
cines of facilitating effect are cathartics
and cholagogues which copiously and
abruptly evscuaie the bowels. Because
it does not do this, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is preferable to the drenching
class of purgatives Painless its effects,
it is sufficiently active to remedy chronic
constipation. 1t relieves by invigoratlng
the intestiDes, and enables, not forces,
them to perform the duty imposed upon
them by nature. Promoting the seeTe-
ton of bile in normal quantities by It's
BEAUTIFULLY stimulating effect upon the
liver, it is eminently conducive to diges-
tion, and contributes in no small degree
to keep the bowels regular

The new series of postage stamps soon
to be issued will vary very little from the
designs now in use. The vignettes will
not be changed at all, and the portraits
on the new stamps will be identical with
those now in use. The chief object Of
the change will be to make the new series
of adhesive stamps conform to those en-
bossed upon the envelopes now sent oul
by the department To this end there
will be several changes in the coiors EN-.
poyed. The most noticeable of these
will be in the 2-cent stamp. This is now
brown. In the new series it will be OF
light green.

where life is at stake. A man with con-

Secret Rehearsal in London.

The greatest secrecy prevails during the
rehearsels of the new Gilbert Sullivan opera
at the London Savoy. No outsiders pres
ence is allowed in any part of the theatre.
If but a chink be open of any door in pit,
boxes or gallery, a warning shout is raised at
once until the door is cld&ed When the per-
formers have occasion to sccost one another
during rehearsal they do 20 as A, B, c. Sc
great is the fear of piracy that even the
actors themselves do not lnow the name OF
the play nor the names Of the chracters they
are severally engaged to represent,-Lon
